Off Street Parking - Car Park Season Tickets Terms of Issue

1:  Season Tickets are issued subject to Council Policy and to Orders made under the Road Traffic Regulation Act in force at the time of issue.

2:  Season Tickets may only be purchased in advance if the new ticket runs on from the date of expiry of an existing ticket without a break in the periods covered.

3:  Season Tickets are issued in respect of nominated vehicles only.  If a second vehicle is to be used during the currency of the ticket, this is to be declared and noted at the time of purchase.  In these circumstances, only one vehicle can be used in conjunction with any one season ticket at any one time. If a temporary/courtesy vehicle is in use, Parking Services must be advised immediately.  Non-compliance with the aforementioned will result in the issue of a Penalty Charge Notice.  Any defaced or altered season tickets will be rendered invalid.

4:  Valid Season Tickets showing the vehicle registration number(s) must be displayed in the windscreen of the vehicle near to the Tax Disc.  All details printed on the season ticket must be clearly visible from outside the vehicle.  Failure to display in this manner may result in a Penalty charge being made each time the vehicle is left in the parking place.  Only the original season ticket bearing the 'genuine' hologram must be displayed.

5:  Possession of a car park season ticket enables the holder to park a vehicle at any council run car park provided that all the terms of issue are complied with.  The exceptions to this are the following:

  • All Resident Only Car Parks
  • Priory Street Multi Store restricted zone (level 7 and above)
  • Cornwallis Street Car Park Pay and Display section (there is a separate section for season ticket holders)
  • Horntye Park
  • The Stade Coach and Lorry Park

6:  Vehicles are to be left in marked bays only and must not be parked so as to cause an obstruction.

7:  Whilst the Council is making and will continue to make reasonable efforts to ensure safety of vehicles, neither the Council nor its employees shall be responsible for any loss or damage to a vehicle or its contents caused by a third party, unless as a foreseeable consequence of a negligent act of omission of the Council or its employees.

8:  Possession of a car park Season Ticket does not guarantee a parking space unless it is for a specific Reserved Bay in either Priory Street or Cornwallis Street car parks.

9:  There is no refund for the surrender of Season Tickets.  Under exceptional circumstances only the council may consider refunds in accordance with the policy.

10:  The Season Ticket is issued in the registration number of the vehicle and is only available for use on that vehicle.  In the event of a change of vehicle, a replacement permit for the remainder of the period will be issued free of charge.  If a further change of vehicle occurs within the period an administration fee of £3.00 will be charged to change the permit.

11:  The completed form and the appropriate remittance should be sent to Parking Services.

Applications may be made in person at Century House from 8.45am - 4.30pm Monday to Friday.  (Late opening at 9.30am on Wednesdays).

Please allow for up to 10 minutes processing time.  Weekly or Monthly season tickets can also be purchased from Hastings Information Centre.
